The Culture of Death is on the Ballot This November

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

Dr. Kody W. Cooper reports that abortion initiatives will appear on the ballot in Nevada, Virginia, Idaho, and Missouri during the November 2026 elections. These measures follow a trend in which pro-abortion forces have won 78.5 percent of state constitutional abortion rights cases since 2022.

In Nevada, voters will consider Question 6, which would establish abortion as a fundamental right that can only be limited by a narrowly defined compelling state interest.

Since the Dobbs decision, eleven states including California, Michigan, and Ohio have established state constitutional rights to abortion, while pro-abortion constitutional amendments were defeated in Florida, Nebraska, and South Dakota. Dr. Cooper notes that pro-abortion groups outspent pro-life groups six to one in 2024.
